It might make sense for folks looking at mid-tier cards & associated miles accruals.

I’m hoping these newer players like Axis & Yes do something exciting... and Diners of course... do something exciting (again) please!
Well i partly agree with you that- ETIHAD rates are horrendous and YQ is disgusting. However, if they launch something that gives EY Gold status plus have milestone bonuses like the AIR India card - it wouldnt be half bad. Ofcourse, nothing right now can match CITI Prestige, DCB and Amex Plat

ICICI Emeralde looks crap - not sure why hype was created
